The Wolverine Reviews, Interviews & More

Hugh Jackman as Wolverine—it’s an idea that was met with a massive fan backlash when first announced nearly 14 years ago, but in the intervening time between 2000’s X-Men and 2014’s X-Men: Days of Future Past, it’s become nearly impossible to think of the character without seeing Hugh Jackman’s face.

Such is the ever-growing allure and success of comic book films (and fleet of dump trucks of money that studios are willing to haul out) that we have entered an era in which more and more prestige directors are agreeing to helm films about people in capes and tights. Case in point: remember when Black Swan and Noah director Darren Aronofsky...

Such is the durability and longevity of the Wolverine character (as well the public’s seemingly-total acceptance of Hugh Jackman in the role, as well as his ability to apparently age as little as possible) that the character of Wolverine continues to pop up in X-Men films. Both the primary franchise (X-Men, X2, X-Men: The Last Stand, and the upcoming X-Men:...

This weekend saw 2 Guns take the top spot, but it didn't do so with much gusto or panache. While The Smurfs 2 also opened, and will probably be carried by international, cause domestic doesn't care very much.

The big difference between anything that opened between May 3 and last week was that almost every film that launched had the possibility of opening to near or over $100 Million. Until basically November, we're out of the big movie season for a couple of months. 2 Guns should open respectfully, but until the next holiday season, expect pleasant surprises and nothing to...

When news first broke that Bryan Singer was coming back to take on X-Men: Days of FuturePast, it sounded too good to be true. Slowly but surely we saw all everything come together from the cast to the story. While they're still in the middle of filming the widely anticipated sequel, they decided to tease us X-Men fans with some incredibly cool viral...

When X-Men: First Class came out in 2011, it opened to $55 Million. People thought it was because X-Men Origins: Wolverinewas so reviled. But people liked First Class(for the most part) so that doesn't explain why The Wolverineopened to less ticket sales.

Summer is over, at least for Hollywood. The Wolverine marks the last A+ title for the summer, while next week brings The Smurfs 2 and 2 Guns, neither of which are expected to break $200 (though they could). Pretty much everything after is either looking or hopeful to do over $100 Million or expected to do less....

It's been a while since ScreenCrave last hosted a contest, but thanks to our friends over at MovieTickets.com we're giving one lucky winner $50 in movie tickets, plus a DVD/Blu-Ray of X-Men Origins: Wolverine. We know how expensive going to the movies can get these days, especially during the summer when you've got big blockbusters coming in every week. So if you're interested in a...

20th Century Fox raised a lot of eyebrows last week when the 2013 San Diego Comic-Con schedule was released, as their scheduled block of time was simply listed as “TBD.” For those paying attention, this was a huge tease of potential possibilities—as /Film notes, speculation ran from the Fantastic Four reboot to The Wolverine to X-Men: Days of Future...

So, the Hugh Jackman-starring The Wolverinecomes out in less than a month, which means we're about to be inundated with material about the film if they hope for the film to be a blockbuster. Funnily enough, at this point it's fair to say the movie will make at least $100 Million domestic, but also, that number is in no way enough to guarantee the film is a...

Pitching clean-up this superhero summer is James Mangold's The Wolverine. The last of the major superhero movies (sorry, Kick Ass 2), it follows Iron Man 3 and Man of Steel with what looks to be a much smaller movie. But this is one of Fox's biggest franchises now that Star...

Poor Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) can never get a break in any of these X-Men movies. He's been tested and tossed around from one end of the continent to the other. We get a better glimpse at how big of a beating he'll be receiving in the upcoming prequel/sequel The Wolverine.

Coverage on James Mangold's The Wolverine is in full swing. 20th Century Fox has released five new images from the set of the film featuring Hugh Jackman, Tao Okamoto, Rila Fukushima and the director himself. Check them out below.

It’s hard to get a read on whether or not the upcoming The Wolverine is any good after the horrendously dull disaster that was X-Men Origins: Wolverine—there are moments in the new trailer that look genuinely great or entertaining or thrilling… but that sour taste from X-Men Origins just keeps popping back up. Maybe viewing The...

Disney's collaboration with Marvel continues to surprise fans as one new project after another pops up. The latest one isn't your regular run-of-the-mill Disney live-action superhero movie but an animated one. We're talking about Big Hero 6, Disney's first big animated feature that they've teamed up to do with Marvel Studios.

In what has become de rigueur in modern action movie trailers, you’ve got to have really loud horns bleating the entire time, just to remind people how cool it was when that happened in Inception, so please come see our movie too, ok? The CinemaCon trailer for The Wolverine is the latest to clip to bludgeon viewer’s ears with...

Out of all of the X-Men that exists in the Marvel comic and movie universe, the one everybody's the most enamored with is Wolverine. Lucky for them they'll be able to gaze at the live-action version of the adamantium-filled mutant in James Mangold's TheWolverine. The filmmaker decided to spoil X-Men fans some more with brand new behind the scenes...

The Wolverineis currently on everybody's lips, and that's just because they released the upcoming sequel just released its first set of trailers. But one of the things that has got many X-Men fans curious is how much of Jean Grey (Famke Janssen) we'll be seeing in the upcoming sequel. A day after the release of the new trailers, actor Hugh Jackman dishes out a...
